Hard to say about this one. The only reference to the product ingredients is to an article in The Townsend Letter. That Article is available here, and is well written. The ingredients are listed, but no quantities.
Oral Chelation and Age-less
I visited their web site on January 15, 2001.
Some Ingredients are shown but all that are shown are without quantities.
Price is shown. You must buy BOTH bottles as a set:
Oral Chelation I & Age-Less Formula II. Price: $49.95
The dosage is NOT shown, nor is the number of tablets or capsules per bottle.
Oral Chelation and Age-Less Formulas Oral Chelation, vitamin, mineral and nutrient replenishment formulas: Oral Chelation I. Formula contains nutrients that travel throughout the body and can cross the blood-brain barrier to bind with and flush out human-made chemicals and heavy metals (including mercury). Contains EDTA, alginate, attapulgite clay, chlorella, methionine, cysteine, lipoic acid, vitamin C, and numerous other ingredients; Age-Less II formula replenishes the nutrients and minerals that are revoved by the Oral Chelation formula and helps support and detoxify the liver; contains minerals, vitamins, phyto-nutrients, antioxidants, amino acids, and lipotropics; both for mulas contain plant based enzymes (bromelain, catalase, and lipase) for optimal digestion, assimilation, and utilization of all nutrients.
WHAT IS CHELATION?
Chelating (pronounced key-layting) agents are substances which can chemically bond with, or chelate (from the Greek chele, claw), metals, minerals, or chemical toxins from the body. The chelating agent actually encircles a mineral or metal ion and carries it from the body via the urine and feces. Chelation is a natural process in the body.
ORAL CHELATION
Chelation delivered orally involves ingesting nutritional food supplements which contain chelating agents (EDTA & numerous natural chelators) including; vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and herbs.
Our oral chelation formula has the ability to chemically bond with and cause the elimination of numerous human-made chemicals and also naturally-occurring healvy metals (including mercury) from the body (as evidenced by heavy metal & mercury levels in urine samples before and after chelation) As mentioned earlier, EDTA does not chelate mercury. In our formula, it is the other chelating agents—cilantro, chlorella, and lipoic acid—that effectively act on mercury
[Karl: Cysteine is a fantastic chelator of mercury. It is not mentioned here, although it is mentioned below. Cysteine, and N Acetyl Cysteine are very expensive ingredients and are often omitted from formulas for that reason -- yet they are essential to the removal of certain heavy metals.
The key here would be the quantity of cysteine, or NAC. These should be at least 300 mg per day to rise about the level of use as protein, and thus not available as a free form amino acid. This formula, of course, like most on the web, does not show the quantities.
The heightened benefits of our Oral Chelation formula may result from the synergistic effect of combining EDTA with numerous natural chelating agents, such as activated clays, certain bioflavonoids, chlorella, cilantro, coenzyme Q10, garlic, L-cysteine, L-glutathione, lipoic acid, methionine, selenium, sodium alginate, and zinc gluconate. Each chelating agent has a predilection for different chemicals and mineral or metal ions. The addition of nutrients known to support liver function and detoxification also increases an oral chelation formula’s effectiveness.
Age-Less Antioxidant/Nutrient Replenishment
A companion formula of antioxidants and other nutrients enhances the chelation process by replacing beneficial minerals removed during chelation, promoting the healing of tissues, and preventing free-radical oxidative damage. As with chelating agents, different antioxidants work on different free radicals. For this reason, the formulas contain a wide range—there are 26 different antioxidants in our powerful replenishment formula.
ORAL CHELATION AND NUTRITIONAL REPLACEMENT PROTOCOL
In terms of ingredients, the Oral Chelation I and Age-Less II formulas have two overall advantages
. They are plant-enzyme based. Enzymes, which are the catalysts for all metabolic actions, assist in the optimal assimilation and utilization of the food people consume (giving them the most nutrients for their money). Enzymes also assist in the assimilation and utilization of the other nutrients in our formulas; thereby ensuring you get the most out of each ingredient. Without enzymes, proper utilization of nutrients is not achieved. With enzyme supplementation, you get up to ten times more assimilation of food and nutrients as without.
Aside from EDTA, the nutrients in the formulas are whole food/plant based, which means you get the range of nutrients and co-factors found in that plant or food, rather than only isolated fractions (as in synthetic vitamin supplements). The healing actions are thus more powerful. In addition, since the formulas are plant based (concentrated food nutrients) there is no need to be concerned about drug interactions or side effects.
As such, oral chelation can serve as a convenient, non-invasive, long-term health maintenance and preventative program. Oral chelation is safe for most children and adults.
Oral Chelation and Nutritional Replacement Therapy for Chemical & Heavy Metal Toxicity and Cardiovascular Disease Overview first published in the Townsend Letter
If you missed it, you can go to either a SHORT explanation of the whole story, or a detailed explanation on ONE PAGE. On this page you are getting more detail on one part of the story, but on either of those pages you can get the broad picture. Don't miss reading one of them. You can actually spend many hours on this web site, depending on the depth of research and reading you want to do. There are an amazing 4,000 pages here -- more information on these general subjects than almost all other web sites combined! At some point along the way you will probably say, "Karl's crazy," and leave never to return to this site, or you will say "I want to try some of that oral chelation formula he writes about!"
